Chapter 3 Beating the Drum and Crying For Justice

Ye Shaoyan glanced at her determined gaze and met her gaze without flinching.

Suddenly, he restrained his strength and waved his sleeve casually.

"Okay, I'll spare your life tonight, but if you can't cure me." He raised his thin lips slightly and showed an evil smile.

"Yama's Palace will be your best place to go."

Tonight was safe. Wei Qingwan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly agreed, "Don't worry, Prince Yan. I will do my best to treat you!"

It was already past midnight when they returned to Prince Yan's Mansion. The rain stopped, and a bright moon rose in the night sky.

Ye Shaoyan ordered his men to find a quiet courtyard for Wei Qingwan to stay in.

After a night of running for her life, Wei Qingwan was so tired that she couldn't move. When she arrived at the yard, she fell asleep.

She was also charged with murder.

When dawn came, she would take revenge for the original owner!

In the study of Prince Yan's Mansion, the lights were dim, and only an orange lantern was burning.

Ye Shaoyan sat in front of the bookshelf with a silver mask on his face.

At that moment, his thoughts raced.

In the past few days, he had given up treatment. Even though all the famous doctors in the world had seen him once, they could not completely cure the poison and old diseases in his body.

But the woman just glanced at him from a distance and determined his injury and the prescription.

He didn't believe it at first, but when he thought of that pair of firm eyes... Maybe she could really cure him?

A dark shadow suddenly fell lightly outside the quiet Study.

Ye Shaoyan turned around in his special chair and looked at the black shadow with his deep eyes.

"How is it?" His majestic voice rang out.

"Master, everything is as Ms. Wei said. The people of Prince Xun's Mansion regard her as the murderer and arrest her all over the city." The black shadow replied respectfully, "Ms. Wei should not be a spy of Prince Xun's Mansion."

"It's hard to explain. Ye Shaoxun has always been good at disguising himself. If he hadn't disguised himself well, I wouldn't have been fooled!"

He spat out these words in a cold tone.

"Keep an eye on Prince Xun's Mansion."

"Yes."

The black shadow responded, but suddenly thought of something and asked cautiously.

"Prince, do you really believe that she can cure you?"

Ye Shaoyan wasn't sure either. He could only say that he was skeptical.

"Give her a few days and we'll know."

"Well, if you can fully recover, the position of Crown Prince will be yours."

Ye Shaoyan was silent, and the black shadow didn't dare to say anything more.

Prince Yan was the only son of the former Empress, the legitimate eldest son, and the legitimate heir to the throne!

However, the Emperor favored Prince Xun and only wanted to give him the throne.

Prince Xun was a good-for-nothing who only knew how to pretend to be talented, powerful, and supported by court officials. How could he compare with their Prince Yan?

It was a pity that the Prince Yan would've died long before if it hadn't been for the fact that his master, the Prince Yan, had great accomplishments in battle and that the emperor couldn't lay a finger on him.

In the past few months, the Prince Yan had clearly won the border war, but the reinforcements had not arrived yet.

The Prince Yan risked his life to take back the city, but he was unable to become the Crown Prince because of his old injuries and disfigured face.

He really felt sorry for his Prince Yan.

He hoped that Wei Qingwan can really cure the Prince Yan!

After a deep sleep, Wei Qingwan woke up at dawn.

Prince Yan's Mansion is extremely quiet, as if no one lives there.

She got up, washed up simply, and looked at her face in the bronze mirror.

In fact, the original owner was not ugly at all, but she had a lot of pimples on her face.

For her, pimples were very simple.

A picosure could be cured in an instant.

The jade bracelet on her wrist was the medical laboratory she had brought from the 22nd century.

With a gentle glance, she received the treatment plan in her mind.

With another thought, the treatment machine fell in front of him. It grew bigger and could be activated automatically.

Soon, Wei Qingwan made herself a picosure. All the pimples on her face disappeared, revealing a beautiful face.

However, she had also applied some ointment to it to repair it.

After that, Wei Qingwan hurried out of the door.

Now the whole city was searching for her. Although it was safe to hide in Prince Yan's Mansion, she could not hide forever.

She wanted to seek justice for the original owner.

When she walked out of the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion, her portrait was pasted everywhere.

The people were stunned when they saw her portrait.

"This Wei Qingwan is really vicious. She even dared to kill a pregnant woman. She's simply crazy. In order to compete for favor, she went mad."

"Wei Qingwan has had a bad reputation since she was a child. It's said that she's violent, cruel, and bloodthirsty. The daughters of rich families in the capital have all made enemies with her, and it's said that she once hit her own sister in public!"

"So, it's normal for her to kill the favored second consort. It's better to catch such a narrow-minded woman as soon as possible."

"She's in big trouble this time. It's useless even if the Empress Dowager saves her."

The common people discussed among themselves.

No one noticed that there was a woman wearing a hat and a light green skirt next to her.

Wei Qingwan listened as she walked, feeling wronged for the original owner.

In fact, the original owner was simple-minded and outspoken. She was never a bad woman who was arrogant as others said.

Everything was maliciously slandered and framed by her sisters at home!

She slowly walked to the gate of the Jingzhao Prefecture.

The magnificent plaque was shining in the sun.

The people who came in and out of the Jingzhao Prefecture were all sent out to catch Wei Qingwan.

Since people from the Prince Xun's Mansion had reported this to the authorities, they would definitely capture her.

Under the cap, Wei Qingwan smiled self-deprecatingly.

Ye Shaoxun was truly ruthless! He didn't give her any chance to live.

She really felt sorry for the original owner.

The original owner had always been in love with him and was willing to do anything for him.

How could a true heart exchanged for such a desperate man!

After adjusting her emotions, Wei Qingwan held her head high, walked quickly to the Deng Wen Drum outside the court, picked up the drum sticks, and hit it hard.

She hit the drums and cried out injustice!

Today, she would make Su Yuting pay the price.

"Bang bang..."

The drumbeats were deafening.

"I want to see the capital official! I was wronged!" She shouted while beating the drum heavily.

The people passing by stopped and were ready to see what was going on.

The people from the Jingzhao Prefecture soon came out.

"Who is the one who beat the drum for injustice?"

"I'm Wei Qingwan!"

She took off her hat and gracefully stood in front of the gate of the Jingzhao Prefecture.

Everyone gasped when they saw her.

"Is, is this Wei Qingwan, the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister, who tried to murder the second consort of Prince Xun last night?"

"Isn't she walking into a trap?"

"In the entire world, how could a weak woman like her escape?"

"But just now, she said that she was wronged?"

"Humph, how could Prince Xun wrong her? Prince Xun has always been kind-hearted and would never wrong others for no reason. This must be Ms. Wei's trick."

"That makes sense. Everyone knows what kind of person Ms. Wei is. She must be trying to frame Prince Xun and turn the facts upside down!"

Wei Qingwan heard every word.

She didn't expect Ye Shaoxun to be so perfect in the hearts of the people as if he was completely a good person.

For a moment, Wei Qingwan felt that dealing with Ye Shaoxun was a bit tricky.

However, she was not afraid. She would deal with whatever came her way.
